>>11657044Goddamn. Can't believe I'm tempted to get back into Pokemon toys after mostly losing interest in the franchise like 15 years ago. The Blokees line's just that good.
>>11657044Fuck yeah, Nidoking! Ordered a Scyther (and Corphish, Squirtle and Bulbasaur) to go with my Meowscarada, might have to get this when it comes out too. The Nidos are some of my favourite gen 1 guys.
>>11657062I bet you buy the latest slopwares though
>>11657135>now that its in the fantastics line theres an actual chance, since thats also where they do other human characters like Miku.Oh interesting. Hopefully if they make them they aren't giants and scale good with their own Pokemon figures at the very least.
>>11657275>they aren't giants and scale good with their own Pokemon figures at the very least.Not gonna count on it unless they make yet another subline for that scale.
So on a whim, i typed in action figures into amazon. the 4 of the first 5 figures are t13. Action figure is now dominated by 3d printed slop. discuss
>>11656238People are fucking idiots these days. It's nearly 2026 and people still can't tell what are paid/sponsored listings, just like some idiots can't tell when items on sites like Walmart, Target or Amazon are sold by third party sellers which explains a higher than MSRP price
I printed one out myself and they are fun. But it cost me like 10 cents and a little time on the printer. I'd never consider buying one or trying to rip some one off charging like 2000% of what it cost to make this thing. And it's durable enough but I have no idea how long the joints will last. But if it doesn't I can print another one easy, not the same if you buy one for 2000% markup.

>>11656727Speaking as a big fan of 3D printing (albeit resin in my case) it's really annoying seeing this crap absolutely everywhere- even aside from it forcing out actually worthwhile booths from fairs, conventions etc, it's disappointing that the public perception of 3D printing is becoming "crappy plastic noodle dragons sold for a massive profit" given how much cool stuff you can do with them.I kinda wanna make a fully poseable (as in, actually poseable, not flexi-bullshit) printable dragon. Need to figure out how to use that pirated copy of Zbrush I have; Blender is really good, and for the actual engineering side of things it's definitely my go-to but for complex sculpting Zbrush is hard to beat. Or it would be if the UI wasn't absolute toilet.
>>11657234The fuck do you mean pirated? Zbrush is free
Hi everyone, my nickname is Greedo3:16 and I've been thinking about it and decided to make a custom figure of Jun Sekibayashi from the anime Kengan Ashura (since I loved the anime/manga). I chose this Blanka figure as a base; I just need to make a few modifications, cut out some parts, and paint the skin. Any advice?
>>11657243Hi greedo3:16
Been here since 2013 and about once a year I like to see where everyone's displays are at, if they've changed, what's new or if they even still collect. I've sold off a lot over the years, my SAS and Storm Collectibles displays are long gone, same with my SHF Dragonball stuff. Whole toy lines I thought I needed, turns out you don't really need any of this stuff. Even if it's just a purchase or two a year, I don't think I could ever leave the hobby. My space is not my space without my little vanity of cool bullshit.
>>11656616I want to do some vehicles for it. Gonna expand this display if everything works, got some cool ideas for it.Few days ago I got my first 3D printer, FDM but a fancy one. Still need SLA for smaller details as I want to do hybrid prints, hulls in plastics, details in resin. I will start printing some parts for my first vehicle once I get the smooth build plate and colors I want to try. Already learning some 3D printing basics by making some inserts for board games.I should print first parts for the turret in like a week or two.
Hey OPJust wanted to say glad you're still around. Your older diplays with the storm figures and vinyls were huge inspirations for me.
Just a heads-up, the Brottar's on sale now for $170 for the people who were interested.

>>11657060this is cool as fuck. is that even a bookshelf you're keeping it on a 2x4 plank of wood?

>>11656786I want to buy more but I just can't seem to get super into it because it feels like money I should be saving for TVC. I did buy Shin Hati's fighter through Amazon Haul since it was like $5 and I needed to spend $4 to meet the bonus discount. Haven't opened it yet though but it did look cool. Also if they make some more podracers I will definitely be keen to get those after getting the 3 pack last year. Which reminds me, that new Racer game coming out could be a fun source to make things from.
There was a rumor of a Total War SW pc game in production is it true?
>>11656864How can you afford TVC? $20 a figure will ruin you.
>>11657123nta but $20 once in a while is not much if you are selective. But if you are collecting every single disney slop release then you deserve to go broke desu
>>11657123It's no different than when I was buying Black Series, Classified, and Legends. I just stopped buying those a couple of years ago and put most of my budget towards TVC.

Got Chun-Li in today- really impressed by her. I possibly like her more than Cammy, and I REALLY liked Cammy. My only gripes are the thigh swivels being straight cuts, and the default face being a bit stern/stoic, would have preferred a slight smile. Otherwise fantastic toy. Especially for £25.

>>11656980>Ninja Force going hard in 2026I know there's a bit of dreadnok stuff coming next year but ninja force stuff is new to me.
>>11656933You should have updated as Hasbro is taking Arctic HISS pre-orders NOW as well as announced an Arctic Trooper 3-pack
If we have to deal with ninja force, I hope we get existing characters getting Ninja Force versions since outside Slice and Dice, all of the created just for Ninja Force Joes fucking suck donkey ballsGive us Ninja Force Lady Jaye, Captain Gridiron, Beachhead, Shipwreck, and Leatherneck with crazy new costumes to reflect their becoming ninjas
>>11657071I was never really a fan of all the ninja stuff, but if Hasbro just has to go in that direction then I hope they'll do the version of the Baroness that was proposed but we never got.
>>11656980The Ninja Forcé SnakeEyes and Scarlet could not even fit on that bike with the kick action feature they had.>>11657028>>Huge butt Scarlet Yes please
Why doesn't Hasbro remake this? This was so goatedPower of the Force is peak toy line, best star wars line ever made. Like, Mcfarlane remade Super Power collection so why not?
>>11656751I'll give you a out 350 for all of them.
>>11650772The biggest thing that pissed me off in that toys that made us show was when they acted as if there were no star wars toys in the mid 90s before TPM released. As if all these kino EU stuff never existed
>>11657087The '95 relaunch of Star Wars figures was huge. Did they really gloss over that shit?
>>11657087>>11657130The Toys That Made Us was entertaining, but really surface level, which is probably due to the run time more than anything. Figure lines like Star Wars or MOTU or TMNT need full length documentary movies to really get where they need to go, or maybe a mini series. First episode on the origins of the toy line, second episode covering Empire and Jedi and Kenner's massive growth, third episode on the fall and rebirth with POTF 1 and 2, forth episode on Episode 1, fifth on AOTC and ROTS, and then maybe a final on Black series and Star Wars moving into 6 inch.
>>11657137>and then maybe a final on Black seriesFuck Black series. I wouldn't want them to skip some of the most interesting eras for Star Wars collecting. Really, the lines between movies like POTJ and OTC were interesting just because they kept the line alive even without a movie to push sales (and VOTC was when they started to accept that a collector's market existed), and could probably be included with each prequel episode, but no way in hell would I want them skipping the 2006-2012 era when they made leaps forward in articulation, design and sculpting, dug deep into EU, and made the big ass Millenium Falcon and AT-AT without needing to beg for the money upfront. Most importantly they kicked off TVC. Oh, and Clone Wars. I didn't like the line except for the vehicles, but it was pretty important.
Hi /toy/, I have a 25" NECA Balrog from 2004 and over the years it has started to warp and loosen up at the leg joints under its own weight. I'm wondering what would be the best way to keep this thing standing.>drill peg holes into bottom of feet and create a stand that keeps the legs from spreading apart>glue all leg joints (the articulation here is pointless anyway)>heat gun to attempt to fix the warped tail and/or warped legAny ideas?
>>11657188>they should have collapse their support pegs long ago due to their weight alonThis right here shows how stupid you are and how little you know about the toy.
>>11657188And you're just a cunt. Funny.
>>11657188>The wing pegs are terrible, with notches that shear off almost immediately.Hey, that happened to mine. Also the sword warped badly so I tried to use heat to straighten it out and the second I applied pressure the damned thing exploded like an Iraqi IED sending shards of plastic in every direction. It was pretty funny. I got rid of it a while back, but wish I had kept it because I got into Mythic Legions since then. It really was impressive despite the flaws.
>>11657188>The wing pegs are terrible, with notches that shear off almost immediately.That doesn't actually happen. I thi k you just admitted to being a hamhanded moron.

>>11654408This one here. She had that whole dominatrix feel to her, and she still stands out when mixed in with other figures of the age. I didn't have any female action figures before her, and she was literally my first one not because someone dropped it on me but because I sought it.
How do you feel about buying toys of stuff from movies you haven't seen, games you haven't played, etc? Not just like, I collect Marvel Legends and I haven't read any of the comics featuring this character but she looks cool so I'm adding her to my collection. I'm talking full on, this is from a property you know nothing about, if anyone asks you anything based on the assumption that you must be familiar with the source material you'll just have to shrug.Like, I like this vaguely evil looking chick. Never played Final Fantasy 16, have no plans to, have no idea who she is or what her deal is. But cool toy, kinda want it.
>>11657126I never really do that personally, but don't see anything wrong with it. Seeking the source material would help you better understand the characters more

I'm really enjoying Hiya's 1/18 figures, but they have got to make the hair out of softer plastic; it's so annoyingly limiting for neck articulation.
>>11656261Ive got a few of the hiya joes pre-ordered(alley, range and spirit). This alley viper especially looks nice. Im not a big fan of the classified look for some of the figures but these 3 look great. I have like 18 POC alley vipers so this guy will be my leader. I hope they knock Night Viper out of the park as well. He is my favorite specialized viper. Wish hydro-viper would get some love by the classified line so we would get a hiya version.
